MR. BORAH AND THE BUREAUS
Answering Mr. Hoover's demand
for reduced congressional appropria-
jtions to prevent higher taxes, Sen
jator Borah says it is the fixed cost
icf our many Federal bureaus and not
ithe appropriations of Congress that
i makes government so expensive,
j The Idaho Senator points out that
iin the last 10 years Congress has cut j
budget estimates by $414, 000, Ou,
! whereas Federal appropriations have
grown from $ 1,098.000, C02 in 1914
ilo $4,821,374,000 in 1931. All lis,

cut down expenditures," made by Mr.
Coolidge. It is a system, and an im
mensely cumulative one. There is a
degree in which it is unavoidable.
Few of u. would care to assert that
the Government ought not to exercise
supervision of transportation, as the
Interstate Commerce Commission
does; or continue vigilant in defense
of public health, as the Bureau of
Animal Industry is now doing in St.
Louis in its insistence that meats
should be inspected; or join with the
states in the building of roads; or
administer the public lands and
parks; or that the Government should
not defend agriculture against invad
ing insects, protect the fisheries and
the seal herds, and do a thousand and
one things that are for the benefit
of the country. That popular indig-
; nation which Mr. Borah forsees will
rise against a great Federal bureau
cracy will not, in our opinion, rise
against the beneficient works of the
Government, which not only supple
ment the work of the states but of
tentimes supply their omissions.
The true case, and the one against
which the people are already rising,
is against those unnecessary excre-
suppoiter of the most flagrant of
these, the prohibition bureau. The
prohibition bureau is a heavy contri
butor to these excessive costs which
he ascribes to executive departments.
According to estimates by the House
Appropriations Committee, the ex-
penses of government attributable to
prohibition enforcement are about
$40,000,000 annually. This includes
over $11,000,000 appropriated to Di
rector Woodcock's organization in
the Department of Justice. It includes
one-half the cost of the Coast Guard,
the total cost of which is about $32,
000,000 a year. The balance is made
up of additional expenses which pro
hibition has laid upon customs ser
vice, district attorneys' offices and
Federal courts throughout the coun
try, and expenses imposed upon Fed
eral penitentiaries. The estimate of
$40,000,000 does not take account of
the great loss to the Government in
taxes on spirits, which Is over half a
billion a year.
The Farm Board falls in the same
category. So. too. at least to a de
gree, does the Wickersham commis
sion. We have never meant to dis
parage all the works of the Wicker
sham commission, but we do feel that
the money spent upon its prohibition

! troublesome issue to it was sheer po-
jlitical artifice the insincerity of
which was proved by the report. The
unpolitical and therefore valuable
work of the commission, most of
which is still to be reported, is some
thing else. As to the Farm Board
and its $500,000,000 revolving fund,
the best that can be said of it is
that it has been a losing gamble.
Gambling is expensive for either in
dividuals or governments. There is
a vast difference in bureaus, and we
must distinguish between those that
are in their nature political, and
therefore useless, and those that are
utilitarian and sometimes scientific,
a necessary corollary of government
for the benefit of the governed.
It is true, as Senator Borah says,
that Congress often whittles down
budget estimates; but it is also true,

THE CABBAGE LIFE
An eminent physician accounts for
John U. Rockefeller's longevity with
the explanation that the greatest oil
man of all time "lives like a cab
bage." Lest the comparison be mis
understood, the eminent physician
hastens to say that the cabbage is a
model of temperance, eating and
drinking only when the spirit moves
;it and only in such quantities as de-
sired. Never, it seems, doe3 the cab
bage unwisely indulge its appetite.
Again, it never worries. And that,
we are informed, is the Rockefeller
regimen.
One may wonder, though, just how
the eminent physician so completely
won the confidence of the cabbage
as to possess himself of its innermost
secrets. To the layman, anyhow, the
cabbage seems as unsusceptible to
flattery or cajolery as any member
of the vegetable kingdom. Once the
Sheraton contour of its youth is gone,
it takes on a grossness that suggests
gluttony and guzzling instead of re
straint. Temperamentally it appears
placid, yes, stolid, but who knows
what humiliations it suffers at the
hands of its associates the high and
mighty bean, for example, or the su
perior tomato, or the insufferably
snobbish lettuce? It weie as fair, and
certainly a more generous, guess that
the life of the cabbage is one of pro
found despair rather than bland self
sufficiency. A happier vegetable simile for Mr.
Rockefeller would be. we should say,
the naive and guileless onion that
outsmarts them all.
A TRIBUTE TO BOY
HOOD AND GIRLHOOD
The President has many highly
interesting experiences along with
his heavy responsibilities and exact
ing duties, but not many of them,
we fancy, have been more touching
than his interview with Bryan Un
tiedt. It was a gracious thing on the
part of Mr. Hoover to invite the
young hero to the White House, but
the invitation and the entertainment
of the boy were more than personal;
they were a tribute to boyhood, the
kind of rec0gnition President Hoover
never misses an opportunity to pay.
It was made more symbolic by the
attitude of the boy himself. This boy
was presented in a little news talky
in Kansas City this week. His man
ner was serious, composed and frank.
He said he appreciated the honor the
President had shown him. but he in
sisted that others in the bus party
were as active as he in meeting the
tragic situation. His modesty denot
ed that he represented them. too. in
accepting the invitation. And so he
did; not only them, but heroic boy
hood and girlhood everywhere.

A FUTILE CONVENTION
The Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, brought face to face
with the most serious business de
pression in our history, contents it
self with the impotent reiteration of
the threadbare formulas. One search
es in vain throughout the long list
of resolutions adopted at its conven
tion in Atlantic City last week for
constructive measures which will re
store prosperity and insure future
business stability.
The chamber would reduce public
expenditures. It would cut the tax on
capital gains. It opposes increases
in taxes on income and inheritance.
It would have the Government with
draw from competition with private
business. Politics, not business, is to
blame for the depression, declared
Juiius H. Barnes, chairman of the
chamber's board of directors. He
would forbid United States Senators
to speak disparagingly of business
men. He denounced "legislative
panaceas" and decried "the paralyz
ing injection of government into the
free play of unfettered effort." Mus
cle Shoals he would sell, or even give
away, in order to stop the agita
tion for public operation which has
so discourage private business. He
would solve the farm problem by giv
ing agriculture more credit, and the
monopoly problem by "reconsider
ing" the anti-trust laws. The whole
question cf inequality of purchasing
power he dismisses with the airy de
nial that there is any concentration
of wealth in our country. Thus the
leaders of the nation's business fall
back on the ancient catchwords of
"private initiative" and "rugged in
dividualism." the very words which
were on their lips when the indus
trial structure came tumbling down
on their heads.
Constructive ideas, to be sure,
were not denied a hearing at the
convention's sessions. The members
heard L. D. H. Weld, director of re
search of the McCann Erickson Co.
of New York, propose the creation
of industrial councils tor economic
planning. They heard L. C. Rey
nolds, comptroller of the American
Yriting Paper Co., propo-ed that such
groups be given a quasi-governmental
status; that they be empowered
to forecast consumption demancl,
plan production and control sales;
that they be required to control the
rate of industrial expansion by so re
straining the exploitation of new in
ventions and the extension of indus
trial operations that production will
not outrun demand; that they build
up reserve funds to guarantee labor
income and thus maintain consumer
purchasing power during periods of
business depression. They heard
Morris E. Leeds describe the Leeds
& Northrup Co.'s employment re
serves and they heard M. B. Folsom
of the Eastman Kodak Co. tell how
14 concerns in Rochester, N. Y., have
established similar reserve funds to
cope with unemployment in that city.
They listened to a description of the
Procter & Gamble Co. salary guar
antee and heard Edward D. Filene.
Boston department store owner, plead
for unemployment insurance. They
received a recommendation from the
Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce
that the Wagner public works stabil
ization plan be extended from the
Federal to state and municipal gov
ernments. They heard the direct,
of the National Unemployment
League call for the immediate inau
guration of an ambitious program of
public works as a means of revital
izing private industry. They listened
while exporters and importers de
nounced the Hawley-Smoot tariff of
abominations..
But they took no action. Should
wages be maintained or cut? They
did not say. How is unemployment
to be reduced and relieved? There
was no answer. Should tariffs stay
up or come down? This problem.
like every other vital economic issue
of the day. they met with silence.
The convention's futility justifies
the severe criticism of American
business leadership which was voiced
at one of its sessions by Dr. Joseph
H. Willits, professor of indsutry at
ithe University of Pennsylvania. Only
jlO per cent of our industrial leaders,
he said, "are alive to the present
(Situation; 40 per cent are shrewd
men of common sense; but the re
maining 50 per cent are far down
the line. Such leadership will land
us in another major depression with
in a decade. We may again abandon
politics and trust ourselves solely to
business, but we shall do so only at
our peril."
RAIDING THE ILE DE FRANCE
Great energy was displayed when
the customs service got an anony
mous tip the other day that the
liner lie de France was conveying
1000 cases of liquor to these shores.
When the vessel docked, 135 inspec
tors and guards went into action.
They searched it from stem to stern,
without result. Not satisfied with
that, they had the entire cargo piled
on the pier, and swarmed over it like
ants for the next three days. When
the hunt was ended their persistence
had been rewarded by 110 pint bot
tles of liquor gathered from 900
members of the crew, a quota in no
wise startling. The agents' salaries
for the time spent in the elaborate
wiid goose chase totaled $4000, and
overtime for stevedores was $800 ad
ditional. There was also a loss, im
possible to calculate, arising from
the delay suffered by consignees of
the vessel's $200,000 cargo. The
convenience of passengers and the
speeding of freight across the ocean
had been set at naught by a hint
from an irresponsible and nameless
informant. The great drama of en
forcement again had descended to
farce comedy.
